EP 018: Does Internal Audit function add any value
to a transformation project?
A conversational interview with a challenge to my views and perspective expressed in EP 12 where I mentioned that Internal Audit were one of the most difficult stakeholder groups and I have struggled to get value add from them whilst working on transformation project, yet there is opportunity for them to do so.
At the back of my expressed frustrations in EP 12, we have a serial "Internal Auditor" in this episode who has come to defend his profession and the value they add to the project.
We also discuss where the project team and Internal audit can combine forces to achieve the best out of the situation.
· However, it all comes down to the "culture in the
organisation". Is this what’s to blame?
· Are the Organisations unknowingly putting their internal audit teams on the back foot?
· Do we get more value from the External Auditors?
Internal audit too are going through the change and have to be more engaged, involved to help them prepare for the go-live change initiative. This is all part of Change Management.
